Hacking Gateway 3DS Availability

[Viaggiatore]

Yah well.... stupid me wanted to save some bucks >.<

Ehm, according to nds-card you are in a "remote area" for DHL, (remember mine and vasalpa issues?). According to their t&c they had to use EMS in this case, but they choose to sent it with HK Post without asking our opinion. So, bottom line, should you paid for DHL you were receiving it by HK Post the same.

So today I received a package from honkong registered airmail..... opened it and it was the goddamn 3DS charging cable, that I ordered 3 weeks ago and that I nearly had forgotten.... why are they trolling me, why? >.< btw the shipment from nds-card.com, that supposedly was shipped 9 days ago, still can not be tracked. Neverr gonna order from that shitty site again, no idea how this site can be the officiall suporter of gbatemp

Welcome to the club! They sent me the product through registered mail instead of DHL (which I had pay for) without even asking!!! Me and Viaggiatore made a complaint but they didn't do anything! I'm forced to wait at least 3 weeks because their service is poor. I know that some people in this forum will start giving me a lesson about chinese market, but I know that because nds-card.com is an official sponsor in this website, they try to cover it up. My conclusion in all of this story is don't trust anyone!

Ordered mine from ModChipCentral on 8/26… received a tracking number the end of last week, and as of yesterday it’s en route! Should be getting it hopefully tomorrow (it appears they have very fast shipping to the states…). I recommend them for anyone in the U.S. if you’re not sure about some of the other foreign retailers (though, you need to wait a few weeks now for more stock). They’ve been great about posting updates on their website regarding expected dates for stock/shipping that have been very accurate!

My cart is leaving NJ currently, I live in MD so it'd be cool if it hits the MD holding facility today and gets home tomorrow. Saturday would be perfect though, it'd suck if it gets delayed until mon

Mine's 400 miles away and shipped Tuesday, yet estimated to arrive on Saturday. :x

Arrived two days 'early' from modchipsdirect. Has both stickers applied almost perfectly and is working fine.

Just ordered a GW3DS From real hot stuff (1 state away from me) so i should get it pretty quick. I even put insurance on it for $1.60 so there better not be no fuck ups or missing packages. All in all it was $82.10 ($78 + $2.50 shipping + $1.60 insurance i probably didnt need). Now i just gotta find a 3ds lol.

After a lot of wait, 100 mails sent to usps customer service, 200 to modchipdirect and 1000 to Obama, I finally just go my Delivery !!! So damn Happy now!

Oh boy !!! What the hell is this? Was just check my mailbox for bill and stuff and I find another Gataway card in there today(first came yesterday night, 10hours between them). OMG, Did they charge me twice (which I dont think so)? Or did they just send me another one cause USPS was wandering for long with my first one ? What should I do now ? Send it back or Sell it on Craiglist MD? Need to check my Bank's history when got home tonight.
PS:
Hope i won't find another one tomorrow !!!

Hello

I would like to know if someone has received a Gateway from chipdiscount.fr ?

They are in the list of official resellers.


I want every body to know that they lie :

When i ordered mine, they were claiming that the linker was in stock.

They sent me the confirmation mail with a precision : product sold-out.

I ordered the 10 of august. They sent me a mail the 30 of august and said : Your order has been shipped.

They assure (big letters on the site) that duration of shipping is 24/48 H and i don't receive yet my Gateway (a week later) !!

(Maybe OneThe have recevied mine !!!!)

Don't go on this site !!

Realhotstuff just fucked me over. I ordered when it was 9 left in stock and it went through, now they are saying its in backorder and out of stock. Fucking Liars

No, it just means there were at least 9 people who where faster than you at filling out their orders.

no, one they changed it an hour or 2 later and two, The name of my order literally says "9 left". If you order one now it says "out of stock" next to the name.

I ordered mine from RHS when they had it listed as out of stock since I'm in no hurry, but it shipped yesterday anyhow, so I guess I got one of the 9. Well, no complaints here. Was pretty funny seeing "Gateway 3DS - OUT OF STOCK" "Status: Shipped," though.

 

[how_do_i_do_that]

no, one they changed it an hour or 2 later and two, The name of my order literally says "9 left". If you order one now it says "out of stock" next to the name.

That is just a change in the title name, it has nothing to do with the actual number for the items in stock. It still means you were too slow to place an order.

 

[Jan1tor]

Just interjecting a side note here.
Every person that is angry, mad, upset, pissed off because they are not getting the Gateway card they ordered.
Think about that. Think how you really feel about not getting what you ordered. Really sucks huh?
Say to yourself this really fucking sucks! I ordered this, they charged me and I didn't get it, or it got canceled, now I have to wait.
Damn I'm mad! I HATE this. This shouldn't be, I'm not getting what I want!
Really think about it, just how pissed you are!

Well........... That is how Nintendo and Game makers feel every time you guys buy one!

I'm not perfect either, I've bought cards in the past myself, but I'm not buying this one.

I just found out about the gateway card about 2 weeks ago. I pre-ordered from Real Hot Stuff and received it today. It seems they only had enough cards to satisfy the pre-order and then immediately went out of stock.

Card is great. Son is loving it. Concerned about Pokemon but will see what happens.

RHS: Carrier has arrived.

Come on GW, the boss battle is coming. Can you spoof up to Pokemon!?

Mannnnn, so much baww to be had over a few weeks of waiting. Not only are you getting all 3DS games free with it, but you don't have the patience to sit here and wait, or the understanding of what sort of crap most people have to deal with in regards to foreign orders on essentially illegal products.

If you wanted it instantly, you needed to have done a lot more research. Or paid a lot more money. Sure, the two cases of 1-week shipping turned 3-week shipping sucks, but you didn't have to pay for the 1-week shipping in the end, and you're still likely to get your card. X_X This stuff takes a while, and so does e-mail contact when there's an entire cruise ship full of your crazy impatient bastards harassing them, especially on shit you don't even understand.

Tracking number will not track doesn't mean it's not out there. It means their tracking service is just plain shitty. They aren't trying to screw you over, that's why they are the sponsor site. And for the recent whining, that's clearly a manually updated title. Unless it had JUST been updated from another value and you saw it update, there was never any guarantee. If you haven't actually gotten one to ship, cancel your order and choose another place. But don't whine about it because that shit happens when dealing with manual quantity updates. Automatic-it-is-not.

Stop. Use your brains. Whine less. Be patient. Good gawd, you're not only being pirates but you're being demanding about it. Yeesh. Go pirate some computer games in the mean time. Play some Terraria or Mercenary Kings or Binding of Isaac or Civ 5. You'll get your damn cards, yeesh. X_X

All very valid points. Indeed. But not adding anything to the discussion topic and is likely to incite flames.

Anyone bought from 3DS-flashcart.com ? Is it legit ?
